Summary

In an integrated health network, various types of organisations are connected along a continuum of care through horizontal and vertical integration. Integrated health network has several interchangeable terms such as integrated health system, integrated delivery system (network), integrated care system (network), organised delivery system, community care network, integrated health care organisation, integrated service network, population-based integrated delivery system, and so on, which all emphasise as a multi-organisation form characterised by serving a defined population across multi-disciplines, including professionals, units, or service-lines of primary care, acute care and long term care. This book provides leading-edge issues on this field from around the globe.
